HAHA dumbass, if you read the first sentence it says vise grips are also a name for them! XD If you are accustomed to using them, you are likely to call them vise grips, because basically everyone who uses them in their work calls them that.

vise grips are a brand name that can be used, like crescent wrench or ipod it is not the actual name, whether you are accustomed to calling it that or not, unless the tool says "vise grips" on them they are locking pliers
